It’s absolutely social media to blame imo. 10 years ago they were only just starting with the aggressive algorithms we know today. This combined with the rise of TikTok and its own algorithm has lead to a resurgence of the right. I believe this was a direct response to how progressive we seemed to be getting in the 2010s. The wealthy right were getting scared. I occasionally accidentally see YouTube “recommendations” and it’s usually unhinged right wing shit with millions of views.
As someone who regularly watches my youtube recs, I never see this. Maybe it's because youtube knows my preferences from watching their recommendations....
On the other hand youtube is definitely trash that promotes fascism. So I'm not doubting you either.
Oh yeah I’m never logged into an account; so I when I see it, I see what it’s pushing as trending and popular. These days I use Freetube and only see what’s “recommended” by accident when I occasionally use YouTube on my iPad.
When I used to use an account I also didn’t see any fascist shit either, so at least that’s a way to avoid it!
